GamerSushi Asks: Old School Downloads?

One thing I love about the newest consoles is the ability to download and play old school favorites straight onto the system. Whether it’s XBox Live, PSN or Virtual Console, each one is allowing gamers to download and experience old favorites at their leisure.

However, I’ve noticed that there are a lack of some of my favorite previous gen games on some of these networks. I think that the Virtual Console is probably doing the best job of giving some of the classics like Super Mario RPG, Zelda and the like. While there are some options on the PSN and XBox Live, there are some notable entries still missing.

So, if your console (or PC) could download any five previous gen titles for any system onto it, what would your choice be? I think I could easily go for KOTOR, Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, Super Mario RPG, Final Fantasy VI and Metal Gear Solid. What about you guys?

Well, let’s see…I’d go with FF1, mostly because it came before Square’s complicated stories and made grinding levels somehow fun. That with Battlefront and Mechassault from the Xbox, CTR from the PS1, and Shadow of the Colossus from the PS2, which I still haven’t got around to playing.

Tough because there is so many but ones I’d like to see are…
1-Crash Bandicoot: Warped
2-Syphon Filter
3-Jak 2
4-Conkers Bad Fur Day
5-Paper Mario
I know once I hit submit I’ll think of 10-15 more but I’m gonna go with the first ones that came to mind.
